15 Years of GBF in 2020. What/Where/When Should We Have an Event?

No matter where it's held, it will be in the wrong place lol...So many members spread so far apart unfortunately.

Yep. I've been part of discussions like this many times. Only way it is going to happen is someone anyone(GP403?) has to decide and follow through. I've been to Great Bend KS, Thompson OH, Indy, Cincy, Muncie Indiana. You just have to decide to go. There where a few that came from ausi land at great bend. as for me I'd have to have my wagon engine ready for racing before i'd travel far. As for a nice venue, 1/8 mile in brown co Indiana. in a valley in the hills. (and local)

If you guys are thinking middle of United states Oklahoma is in the middle theres plenty of drag strips and autocross areas.plus illegal street racing spots like old airports where they films some of the street outlaws stuff.

I don't want to be a bad person (ha ha) but in our shipping department we had a map. Warren, Ohio the center, 1000 mile circle, 500 any direction, more people in that area than anywhere else in the continental U.S.A. The idea was that 500 miles was one day drive for the truckers.

A couple more Ohio tracks, easy access from either US I-80 and US I-76.

This is likely the posters they have up at several of the military compounds in Beijing.

I do not doubt that in the least.

If you had it around Illinois I might come? I could probably pick up a kid from the Suburbans of Des Moines.

That 500 miles radius from Warren, OH reached NY City, Charlotte, N.C. passed Chicago plus some of Canada. Lots of potential G-body owners.
